Novel Update: First draft - Chapter Seven.

Word Count: 19,444 (So close to 20k)

Yes, you haven't seen one of these in a while. I kind of got sidetracked in the short stories I've been working on, but I got back into it tonight and it felt good. I wrote over 1,000 words.

Tonight, at the very beginning of my writing session, the writing felt different. The words in the first few paragraphs seemed to be better. With more depth and description. But, it's getting really late now and I started to slow down. So until next time...

About Me

My name's Benjamin Solah; I'm a horror writer and Marxist revolutionary living in Melbourne, Australia. I work full-time in an office but prefer to focus my attention on writing and politics. I write horror stories with a political edge - I like to portray capitalism as brutal and unjust. I'm also involved in politics as a revolutionary socialist and can frequently be found at left-wing protests including against wars, racism, attack's on worker's rights, environmental destruction, sexism and homophobia.
